You asked if you could reuse the same DE.fsc... that's what I meant... If you read the DE.fsc again from the car that will generate the same DE.fsc That's what i meant with "running" meaning reading the DE.fsc again... the DE.fsc from your car never changes |

Thanks, I've actually got the generator part figured out, now just waiting for my cable to arrive so I can pull the code from E-Sys. Should arrive here from China by mid-June. It's going to be a long wait.

I attempted the update to 2015-2 three times over the last day but never got past the initial OK when the car recognized there was updated navigation data in the usb.
I just assumed it was updating silently in the background because I never saw any feedback at all from the car.. Don't make that assumption, Nothing is happening... To continue: I went and bought a good quality 32Gb usb stick and copied the data onto it. Now I see the prompt for update and after saying ok, I am presented with the enter code screen. I entered the FSC code that I generated and now it is actually showing me progress on the update. Lesson? Use good equipment, even if its only a USB stick! |

What exactly is the file layout of the USB drive supposed to look like for my M235i? I can't seem to get my car to recognize that I have inserted a drive. I have verified that it is FAT32 formatted. I'm going to try another drive (the one I was trying is a newer Corsair USB 3 though so it should be fine). Just trying to eliminate other possibilities.

"Notes: ====== 1. Some USB drives come with a hidden partition at the front of the drive. Make sure to go into Disk Management (for Windows) or Disk Utility (OSX) and delete all partitions. Then recreate a single partition formatted FAT32 (Windows) or FAT (OSX, it's FAT32 by default). 2. For Mac users, OSX places a series of hidden files on the USB stick which may cause the NBT not to properly read the data, if you have this problem use a utility like Blue Harvest to remove all the hidden files/folders from the USB stick. If you have trouble with this, let me know and I can assist. " |

I've tried two ways. Once where the NAVD_000014B8_255_002_162 folder was at the root of the drive, and once where the contents (1,2,3,4 folders, config.nfm,NBT_NANT_111142.3.113.pkg,NBT_NANT_1111 42.3.113.pkg.sig) were at the root. I'm going to try another drive next, I just figured I'd ask the question while the files extract/copy. |

Good news is the HP stick worked. Bad news is the code entry screen pops up so I need a FSC activation code. Good news is I have stuff to do that myself. Bad news is I haven't done any coding before. I easily got past the first few steps:

Per the instructions you need to go into FSC Extended mode.
You are not in FSC extended, you are in FSC which is in comfort section. Goto Expert tab first, then FSC extended. Beware you may need a token/crack to enable expert mode |
